"Expel Vijay Mallya from the Rajya Sabha with immediate effect" states the ethics committee report submitted to the chairperson of Rajya Sabha. With that Vijay Mallaya fate was sealed. Nipping in bud any attempt by liquour baron for an "honourable exit".

In its 34 page report, the Ethics Committee of the upper house of Parliament recommended that this would send out a strong message. Vijay Mallya had sent a scanned copy of his resignation on 2nd of May, pre empting ethic committee action against him saying he did not want his " name" and "reputation" to be further dragged in mud.

However, Mallya was informed that his resignation letter did not conform to prescribed procedures and did not bear his signature in the original.

The ten member Committee were of the view that loan defaulter Mallay's actions are "unbecoming" of a Rajya Sabha MP.

In a communication from Dr Karan Singh to Vijay Mallya, Singh stated that it has been noticed that you have declared no liabilities on you, in your declarations of Assets and Liabilities, while information received by " ethics committee" from Ministry of finance puts the " liquor baron" liabilities at Rs 9431.6 crore in the form of bank loans.

Mallaya had defaulted on more than Rs 9,000 crores in loanstaken from 17 banks. He left India on March 2 and is believed to be in the UK. After failing to appear for three consecutive summons by the Enforcement Directorate (ED), the external affairs ministry also revoked Mallya's diplomatic passport.

"The committee was of the firm view that taking into consideration the gravity of the misconduct, a sanction not less than termination of membership from the House is warranted under the circumstances,"

This is may be the " beginning of the end" of "good times" for Vijay Mallya. Another MP from Rajya sabha has said " that ultimately the decision to expel lies with the chairperson of Rajya Sabha" , the ethics committee report is likely to be given to Business advisory committee, before a final call of expelling "Mallya" is taken.
